The Smallest Anchor

 

The Smallest Anchor, will explore how deep contentment and peace are often found in simple, present-tense moments, grounding us amidst life's complexity.


A minimalist, soft-focus photograph of a hand gently holding a small, smooth, river stone or a worn wooden object. The focus is on the warmth, texture, and stillness of the hand, symbolizing a small, grounding anchor.
The anchor does not need to hold the entire ship. It only needs to hold you, right here, right now. Dive into "The Smallest Anchor," a poem about finding peace in the small, weightless certainties of the moment. #SmallestAnchor #Contentment #Joy

The Weightless Certainty

We spend our days searching for the massive chain, the heavy, brass-bound structure of security. But peace is not found in the grand, fixed form, it is located in the deliberate choice to value the small, weightless certainty.


The Geometry of Contentment

Contentment is the quiet knowledge of the here and now. It is the simple heat of a mug in the palm, the smooth, cool stone slipped into the pocket, or the final, perfect settling of the dust. These small, chosen objects become the anchor.


The Still Point

The anchor does not need to hold the entire ship. It only needs to hold you, right here, right now, against the tendency of the mind to drift.


It teaches that delight is not an event, but a texture— the sound of a single, slow, rhythmic breath, or the precise, fleeting shade of blue in the sky.


The Enduring Measure

This is the ultimate measure of joy: The ability to stop the clock completely, and feel the profound, unburdened peace of the smallest, most ordinary moment holding the entire world still.

The Ritual of Softness  As the evening settles, soft and low, your presence lights the shadows, making them glow.  Welcome Home My Love  This quiet knowing, a comfort deep and true, connecting me to you.

Urge

Night's Unlit Path of Thought With every passing moment, the body aches and the core begs.  A restless yearning in the quiet of night, patiently awaiting your return. Unruly Yearning I was in mood to misbehave.  I told him so while he was at work.  He later laid out his terms, and I accepted.  But the moment we hung up, I returned with these words: "Yes, you spoke, but with every passing moment. The Irrepressible Ache my body aches for your touch.  My very core can't seem to stand still;  she just keeps on begging.  The more I try to keep her at bay, to quell this vibrant fire, to make my spirit wait, the more she calls out your name, a siren's song, a wild, insistent fate. A Battle Within My thoughts, a tangled thread, unwinding in the dark, each one a vivid image, leaving its potent mark. I pace the silent rooms, where shadows softly creep, and conjure your returning in the moments I can't sleep.
